The Dark Angel (1935) 94% EDIT “One of the worst films of the year. ” – The Spectator Mar 10, 2023 Full Review Modern Times (1936) 98% EDIT “The little man has at last definitely entered the contemporary scene.” – The Spectator May 6, 2021 Full Review The Plainsman (1936) 100% EDIT “The Plainsman is certainly the finest Western since The Virginian: perhaps it is the finest Western in the history of the film.” – The Spectator Apr 22, 2020 Full Review Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) 97% EDIT “It is a great film, even though it is not a great story, acted by a magnificent cast, so that Capra can afford to fling away on tiny parts men like Eugene Pallette, Guy Kibbee, Thomas Mitchell and Harry Carey.” – The Spectator Sep 11, 2019 Full Review Idiot's Delight (1939) 33% EDIT “Over-acting could hardly go further...” – The Spectator Sep 11, 2019 Full Review The Dawn Patrol (1938) EDIT “It is quite a good picture, well-directed and in some cases well-acted, but I don't believe it's true-a great deal of self- pity and romanticism have gone to the making of this excellent ham-sandwich.” – The Spectator Sep 11, 2019 Full Review Kentucky (1938) EDIT “Kentucky is the first film I have seen which has been made by its colour.” – The Spectator Sep 11, 2019 Full Review Each Dawn I Die (1939) 50% EDIT “The picture goes out in a blast of bombs and bullets: odd that it leaves so little impression behind.” – The Spectator Sep 11, 2019 Full Review Never Say Die (1939) EDIT “But the most enjoyable film for weeks has slipped by un- noticed among the heroic and romantic. Never Say Die is consistently absurd...” – The Spectator Sep 11, 2019 Full Review The Stars Look Down (1939) 90% EDIT “Since this is the story of a mine disaster his work will inevitably be compared with Pabst's in Kameradschaft : he can bear the comparison.” – The Spectator Sep 11, 2019 Full Review 21 Days Together (1940) EDIT “The brilliant acting of Mr. Hay Petrie as a decayed and outcast curate cannot conquer the overpowering flavour of cooked ham.” – The Spectator Sep 11, 2019 Full Review Black Eyes (1940) EDIT “Baur, too, is a great enough actor to lend what might otherwise seem a somewhat grotesque situation genuine suspense...” – The Spectator Jul 16, 2019 Full Review Three Smart Girls Grow Up (1939) EDIT “There is no doubt any longer of Miss Durbin's immense talents as an actress ; any undertones that there are in this amusing, astute and sentimental tale are supplied by her.” – The Spectator Jul 16, 2019 Full Review East Meets West (1936) EDIT “Avoid like the plague.” – The Spectator Feb 15, 2019 Full Review Marchand D'Amour (1935) EDIT “Directed with immense panache and a secret sense of amusement.” – The Spectator Feb 15, 2019 Full Review The Great Ziegfeld (1936) 72% EDIT “Like a man sitting hour after hour on top of a pole, it does excite a kind of wonder; wonder at how it manages to go on.” – The Spectator Feb 15, 2019 Full Review It's Love Again (1936) EDIT “Mr. Victor Saville has directed It's Love Again with speed, efficiency, and a real sense of the absurd.” – The Spectator Feb 15, 2019 Full Review EDIT “Very nearly worth seeing for the sake of two fine players who are too seldom seen on the English screen. Mr. Wilfred Lawson as the blackmailer with a commercial background... and Miss Nancy Price as the ex-criminal's mother.” – The Spectator Oct 13, 2018 Full Review Dark Rapture (Magie africaine) (1938) EDIT “It is impossible to exaggerate the beauty of this film ; perhaps it is not a picture for anthropologists: the impressions it gives are rapid, general, uninstructed, aimed at the imagination rather than the intelligence” – The Spectator Oct 13, 2018 Full Review The Ghost Goes West (1936) 100% EDIT “The silly story, the gross misuse of Clair's peculiar qualities, were forgotten in my admiration for his camera sense. In no other film this year has there been the same feeling of mobility, of visual freedom.” – The Spectator Oct 4, 2018 Full Review Thanks a Million (1935) 100% EDIT “Thanks a Million is a very amusing musical skit on American State elections.” – The Spectator Oct 4, 2018 Full Review The Arsenal Stadium Mystery (1939) EDIT “The explanation of the murder depends on another death outside the story and a coroner's report, and Mr. Dickinson's skill is never more evident than in his grim sad dramatisation of the dull typewritten pages.” – The Spectator Oct 3, 2018 Full Review Personal Column (1939) EDIT “Chevalier seems a little out of place as a rich impresario -- he can't help looking like a waiter or a chauffeur of immoderate charm, but there's Jean Renoir and a lovely new actress, Marie Dea, and al sorts of admirable minor parts.” – The Spectator Oct 3, 2018 Full Review The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1939) 94% EDIT “In its shocking way it's really very fine.” – The Spectator Oct 3, 2018 Full Review Destry Rides Again (1939) 96% EDIT “A rather tired Western with a rather tired Dietrich.” – The Spectator Oct 3, 2018 Full Review
